"Liverpool defender Ibrahima Konate made a cheeky comment to Arsenal's William Saliba while they were signing autographs together on France international duty. Konate won the Premier League title with Liverpool last season while Saliba and Arsenal had to make do with second place again a position they've finished in for three years in a row. Liverpool and Arsenal are likely to be the main two title challengers again in 2025/26, and it seems like Konate might have been trying some mind games with Saliba."
"Saliba wasn't taking the bait, insisting that it would be Liverpool again, so it seems the two players were keen to put a bit of pressure on each other. Will it be Liverpool or Arsenal for the Premier League title? As covered here for the Daily Briefing yesterday, this could finally be the Gunners' year as their sheer consistency might finally see them through."
Ibrahima Konate teased William Saliba while they signed autographs on France international duty, referencing Konate's recent Premier League win. Saliba and Arsenal have finished second three years in a row. Liverpool and Arsenal are projected as the main title challengers for 2025/26, and Konate's remark came across as light mind games. Saliba rejected the tease and insisted Liverpool would win again. Arsenal currently sit top of the Premier League and have accumulated more points than any other side over the past three years, suggesting consistency could finally deliver them the title.
